3 kg a month challenge - day 2
I missed a post yesterday because I was busy, but I've been thinking about speeding up weight loss. The eternal dream of having fast weight loss. Can I do it? I don't know. I've done it in the past, but not for long periods of time. Can I lose 3 kilograms a month? I don't know. Or rather, how long can I lose 3 kilograms a month? I decided to have a plan. One of many, as you no doubt have observed about me.
I want to have three stages of weight loss. I want to lose weight at 3 kilograms a month, for a certain number of days. Aiming for 6,000 kilojoules of food intake a day, and up to 60 minutes of exercise a day. If I'm losing weight too quickly, I'll reduce the exercise. Tracking my weight every day, am I losing at 3 kg a month (100 grams a day)? If yes, everything is fine.
One day, I'll be exercising 60 minutes a day, eating 6,000 kJ, and I will be slowly edging below 100 grams a day weight loss. I'm just not losing fast enough. The thing to do then is to have a bit of a break, and drop it down to 2 kilograms a month. Maybe I'll drop the exercise to 30 minutes, and then increase/decrease my food intake so I'm always at 2 kg a month. Who knows.
I think that I can probably continue at 2kg a month until goal weight, however I do want to live with my girlfriend when a vaccine has been made, but when we live together I'll drop my intended weight loss to 1 kilogram a month only. That's because I won't have access to the gym, and the Philippines doesn't have numerous parks that New Zealand has. Running on roads/footpaths is definitely unsafe, so there's not going to be any exercise in the Philippines for me.
Today I weighed at 95.5 kg and I weighed 95.6 yesterday. That's 100 grams a day, which is what I want. Let's see how I go tomorrow.
